Consideration 9

Extract:

The Commission objects to the receivability of the complaint on the grounds that the complainant has failed to comply with the requirements of paragraphs 1 and 2 of Article 5 of the Rules of the Tribunal. As a power of attorney was filed with the Tribunal’s Registrar, who, in accordance with Article 6 of the Rules, then forwarded a copy of the complaint to the defendant, there is no violation of Article 5 and the objection is rejected.
